In essence, the quote is asking you to consider the church as a kind of building, a house of the lord. If the Church is true, the fact that it is based on a rock means that its foundation is sturdy. The Bible says that the foundation of the true church, thus, is built from Christ, who is the chief cornerstone and thus the stone on which everything else is built. The rest of the foundation is built off the teachings of the Apostles and Prophets, who draw from Christ to support the church. If the church in question is not founded on Christ, or carries a foundation of Apostles or Prophets that contradict Christ and what he stands for (or don't even have apostles and prophets at all) then the church is not true, for its foundations are faulty, and it falls.

Its the 3rd sacrament Commioun. Answer I copy and paste this expalantion as to what the sacrament is. Quote- The two Protestant ceremonies are baptism and the Lord's Supper; in the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church there are seven traditional rites accepted as instituted by Jesus: baptism and confirmation and Holy Eucharist and penance and holy orders and matrimony and extreme unction- Unquote. As you can see there are many sacraments but in this writers opinion the most important is the Sacrament of remembereing the blood and body of Christ given freely so that all mankind might live again.

Johnson was known for his wit and wisdom, and this particular quote is believed to be from his work "Boswell's Life of Johnson." The quote suggests that some individuals may use religion as a shield to hide their true intentions or misdeeds.

*Dont quote me on this* I think they thought the Church of England was too corrupt to save.
Christians believe that all people are made equal in the image of God. Jesus taught equality for both men and women.St Paul, however, in one of his letters, taught that women should submit to their husbands, but this quote was for a particular church at a particular time, answering a particular problem they had, and was never considered a general Christian rule, which is that men and women are different, biologically and psychologically, but equal.Sadly, though, some members of the Christian church will not accept this and refuse to allow women their full role in the ministry of the Church. A case in point is the Roman Catholic Church which will not allow women to be ordained as priests.However, Jesus never taught this discrimination, and most forward-thinking Churches today like the Anglican Church and the Methodist Church have allowed women to be ordained for decades. And so they should.
The church says the earth is flat, but I know that it is round, for I have seen the shadow on the moon, and I have more faith in a shadow than in the church.

Reverend Sykes threatened to church Lula: quote " Don't pay no 'tention to Lula, she's contentious because Reverend Sykes threated to church her." (Lee, 119)
Jesus is the church. Jesus is the head and Lord of the church. When accepting Jesus into your life, you become a part of Jesus' body. A member of Jesus body and church. You do not have to be a member of a man made church to be a part of Jesus' church. Although believers/followers of Christ are to congregate, nurture and edify each other. A church can be a building where people can congregate to praise or worship God and Jesus. Or a church can be a gathering of 2 or more people gathered in Jesus name. Eph 5:29-30 states...For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord of the church. For we are members of his body, his flesh, and of his bones. This is the best I can quickly and correctly quote right off of my head.
Desiderius Erasmus's position on church rituals was to get rid of some church rituals that he considered meaningless. Instead of rituals, he emphasized devotion to God and the teaching of Jesus. Erasmus was an early heretic, to quote from his biography: In his Treatise on Preparation For Death he made clear his position, that faith in the atonement of Christ, and not in the sacraments and rituals of the church, is the only guarantee of eternal life.
No, Senator Obama does not attend a pentecostal church.
